In fact, Tan Qingshan didn't need Tan Dingguo to analyze the current situation of Ning Jing's family for him; he understood that selling his job to buy food to save their lives was the best option for Ning Jing right now.
Going to the county town to work is good, but it's too late to solve an immediate problem.
After all, if you go to work as a factory worker, you can't expect to be paid as soon as you start work.
Putting aside whether Ning Jing cares about the life or death of this family of children, even if Ning Jing didn't sell this job and went to work immediately, she would still have to wait until the end of next month to get her salary.
Wouldn't people starve to death in a month?
Not to mention, even if Ning Jing wanted to work in the county town, she still had Uncle Hongxing's family there. Would they let Ning Jing leave Hongxing's younger siblings and leave Xishan Village so easily?
However, even after he came to terms with it, the thought that this job was earned with Brother Hongxing's life still made him extremely upset.
"well……"
Tan Qingshan squatted to the side, raised his hand and grabbed his hair tightly, closing his eyes in pain.
Seeing Tan Qingshan's expression, Tan Dingguo knew that he had agreed.
"Alright, Qingzhou, you and Qinghe, before it gets dark, take 50 jin of sweet potatoes and deliver them to Ningjing and the others."
Oh, and don't let anyone see this. Keep everything that happened today a secret, understand?
Also, don't be envious of your brothers working in the mines and making money; that kind of work isn't as easy as it seems.
In addition, the family will only help your younger brother pay for the 50 yuan and 200 jin of coarse grains first.
Once he earns money, he can slowly pay it back to his family.
Upon hearing this, Tan Qingzhou hurriedly said, "Father, Qingshan and I are brothers, how could you think that way?"
Tan Qinghe felt relieved and said, "Father, don't worry!"
"I've definitely taken care of what you asked me to do."
Tan Dingguo glanced at them a couple more times, then snorted, which was his response to his two sons' words.
The same question arose when Ning Jing and Xiu Hua returned home after finishing their work. Xiu Hua looked at her sister-in-law, hesitant to speak.
Today, Xiuhua felt very vindicated for upsetting her uncle and cousins so much.
However, she also couldn't understand why her sister-in-law would sell this job!
Who wouldn't want to be a worker in the county town these days?
After finishing work, Ning Jing originally wanted to hide in her room to check how many gold coins she had earned that day and what she could buy from the shop.
But now, Xiuhua's eyes were glued to her, giving her no chance to check with the system.
Ning Jing sat calmly at the long table in the courtyard, holding a chipped bowl in her hand, and shoveled the wild vegetables in the bowl into her mouth.
I barely chewed it before swallowing it straight down my throat.
Luckily, Xiuchun chopped it a few times while it was cooking, otherwise it would have choked.
"Just ask what you want to say."
Feeling slightly annoyed by being stared at, Ning Jing put down her chopsticks and immediately looked up at Xiu Hua.
Xiuhua opened her mouth, then fell silent, lowering her head to pick at the wild vegetables.
Ning Jing glanced at her bowl, then her eyes darted around and she saw that the bowls of her family's little ones were full of wild vegetables.
Only the twins, when she came back just now, she saw Siya holding a sweet potato the size of a child's palm, peeling off the skin and stuffing it into her own mouth, while breaking off small pieces of the flesh and feeding them to the twins.
I don't know if the two children are used to being hungry, but they don't cry. When food is put near their mouths, they open their mouths wide.
Just like a little bird waiting to be fed, once the sweet potato is in its mouth, it immediately purses its lips, purses a few times, and then opens its mouth wide again, waiting to be fed.
